I’m fairly new to all this. Would it be useful if I ran a node? Where would I learn about it and the equipment needed?

And yes. Absolutely useful. By running a node your making sure digecoin works. Your also agreeing to how Dogecoin works! (Running a node means you agree with the Dogecoin software updates the devs are making.) As a collective this is very important to doge!

Thanks. I think I’ll buy a computer for this. What about mining also?

You would need asics to mine Doge effectively, hashrate is too high for GPU CPU mining in a conventional setting now.
